Maybe this will drive more people away from Reddit.

About to?

It’s been pozzed for probably 15 years, definitely since it had a big part to play in Obama being elected the first time.

2008 was Facebook/MySpace. Reddit had just started in 2007 and was tiny,

It inherited digg around that time, so it was bigger than it should have been, and was growing. By 2012, remember that Obama did a TIL, showing how quickly it grew, just 4 years and everything was different.

we could possibly accelerate that spiral. a bunch of subs like permanently shut down, so just open up alts of them, that we control, and drive users away by naturally not being cringe redditors lol

What makes this unique is that it’s reddit itself signing off on it
